Book Discussion Reflection

1. One of the book quotes described a scene where a young child was being taken away from her mother by a Nazi. I found that very moving because I can’t imagine life without either of my parents or having a child taken away from me.

2. The book demonstrated people overcoming challenges by coming together and making the best of situations.

3. In Iraq Christians are persecuted. There used to be over 1.5 million and now there are less than 200 thousand. This bothers me because here in America we welcome all religions and let everyone practice them freely. We have rights that protect all of our people, but in Iraq, the government just allows their citizens to persecute, beat and murder Christians because Muslim is their main religion.
